A candlelit dinner or a romantic getaway for a few days? Without a doubt, trips on Valentine’s Day are an excellent choice to celebrate in the best possible way. But what to do? Where to go? The possibilities for celebrating Valentine’s Day are truly endless.
- A weekend in Paris
it is undoubtedly a winning opportunity. Wander the streets of Montmartre and admire the views, stroll along the Seine or, why not, sail along it by boat while having an elegant dinner, have an aperitif while admiring the Eiffel Tower… in short, the Ville Lumiere really offers many opportunities to celebrate Valentine’s Day in best of ways. There is no shortage of trendy clubs and starred restaurants to make the experience unforgettable and chic. Among other things, there is no shortage of last minute offers online , so you can leave with an eye on your wallet.
- St. Valentine’s New York
it is another excellent choice for those who want to treat themselves to a slightly more challenging and spectacular journey. Have an aperitif on the top of The Edge, the tallest skyscraper in the Western Hemisphere, or stroll hand in hand in the splendid parks, or in the crowded and brightly lit streets. Naturally, for a trip of this type you need to organize yourself well and plan to make it last at least 4 or 5 days, given the long air travel times.
Among other things, February is an excellent month to go to the Big Apple: in this period tourism is not chaotic and you can enjoy the city with more peace of mind, being able to visit more things. And prices are also relatively low, starting with flights: in fact, there are return offers for less than 400 euros. For a decidedly romantic effect, the advice is to rent a hotel room with a view of the skyline, such as in Long Island City, from which you can also see the Empire State Building. Or again, accommodation in the center of Manhattan, in the beating heart of the city.
- Valentine’s Day at the spa
it is instead the ideal solution for those who do not want to spend too much but at the same time want a weekend away in the company of their better half. The options are many. One above all, Abano Terme, full of hotels with internal spa centres, which allow you to lock yourself up in the warmth and spend two or three days in the name of well-being. Since February is a non-tourist period, prices are also decidedly lower than average. So why not book a romantic getaway in this lovely centre, perhaps looking for some ad hoc wellness packages for couples, complete with massages and treatments, so you can enjoy full relaxation?
- Trip to the mountains
another winning solution. Especially because it has snowed in recent days, and has therefore created the ideal scenario for a small holiday in the snow. For ski lovers, the celebration of love can therefore become an opportunity to go for a skiing week, or even just for a weekend in which to have fun on skis or on a snow board or even go for a walk with snowshoes between the woods. In this sense, Trentino Alto Adige, with its Dolomites, offers unique scenarios. All of this can be crowned with a romantic dinner with a lit fireplace in some mountain hut.
- Escape to the heat
it is instead the best choice for those who do not like harsh climates and want to go and spend the winter for a few days, anticipating spring. In this case there are many choices, but if you don’t want to spend too much, destinations such as the Canary Islands or the Red Sea are very popular. In the first case, the temperatures remain perpetually spring-like, at any time of the year, and even in a month like February the sun shines and it is possible to wear a bathing suit and swim. But even in the second case, at this time of year the temperatures are rather spring-like, with highs of 25-26 degrees, which allow you to swim, but without dying of heat. Pay attention, however, to the prices: it is better to postpone the trip for a few days, to find much lower offers for planes.
